• Code-switching. Two issues: The "Selective bibliography" may contain items that are arguably not very notable, and the recently added section "Code-Switching in Literature" seems to be based on a definition of code-switching outside of linguistics. I am refraining from editing either section due to past edit wars. Cnilep (talk) 15:49, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
